Which luxury Krabi villa will you choose04 October 2015

Krabi is deservedly growing in popularity, but still relatively undeveloped in comparison to Phuket and Samui. Krabi is the perfect base from which to start an island-hopping adventure. You’ll also discover a wealth of activities in Krabi itself including rock climbing, hiking, Thai cookery lessons and dining out.

The stunning views of limestone cliffs and crystal clear blue waters are idyllic. If you choose to make Krabi your base, it’s important to select the right accommodation. Here’s a taster of Thailand Retreats luxury Krabi villas. Many of these are waterfront or beachfront villas, with an extra touch of something special.
